About Tavin L Tablet

Tavin L Tablet belongs to a group of antiretroviral medicines used to treat HIV infection.

Tavin L Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely: Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil. Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, whereas Tenofovir disoproxil is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Tavin L Tablet works by interfering with the working of nucleotide and nucleoside reverse transcriptase enzymes which are necessary for the reproduction of the virus. Together, Tavin L Tablet helps in treating HIV infection.
 
You are advised to take Tavin L Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition.
